Environmental regulations provide protection for both environmental assets and the livelihoods of communities that depend on these assets. Environmental impact assessment (EIA) is one of the central mechanisms for environmental regulation, and a critical tool in planning for and ensuring sustainable development. The purpose of EIA is to ensure the protection and conservation of the environment and natural resources in the process of industrial and infrastructure development. EIA is both a planning tool and a decision-making mechanism.
